I am honored to welcome author Viji K. Chary as my spotlighted author in this interview. The World of Ink Network will be touring author Viji K. Chary’s children’s picture book, Porcupine’s Seeds published by 4RV Publishing. This is one stop on her exciting tour and road to success.

Just a short taste to entice you to learn more:

About the Book:

Porcupine longs to grow beautiful sunflowers in his garden just like Raccoon. When Raccoon give Porcupine seeds, she says that all they need is soil, sun, and water. But growing sunflowers is not easy for Porcupine.

Viji K. Chary was born in India and immigrated to the United States at the age of two. Her passion for writing stories began in elementary school and has evolved from coaching children in various activities; including gymnastics, classroom activities and creative competitions. Her stories have been published in Highlights for Children, Ladybug Magazine, Hopscotch for Girls and many more.

Viji’s response:

Viji’s response:

Fran: Why is writing a great outlet for both adults and children to express their feelings and ideas?

Viji’s response:

Fran: How is this a great way for children to take ownership of their words and thoughts and produce something that is individual to each one of them? How do you encourage children to write?

Viji’s response:

Topic: Since your book is geared to young children and yet everyone can learn a lesson from Porcupine’s determination to succeed: When writing a children’s book do you feel the primary focus should be the action or pictures to capture the child’s interest or the story line and message to teach a lesson and encourage them to read it or both?
